Hi Trevor, Having come to the same conclusion we're in the process of upgrading our processes to include the items you just mentioned.
One thing we've learnt to be particularly careful of is deleting users responsible for creating anything in use from the master page gallery, style gallery, and other dependencies - group owners, site contacts etc. SharePoint doesn't handle this intelligently and you can wind up with non-specific errors, page and page setting errors, CSS not loading... It may just be us (there's no doubt our farm is special) but if you've got a farm that was implemented and developed using non-generic accounts then you might wind up with some of these too. There are a couple of custom GL commands for stsadm that can resolve these problems.

Within an organisation I'm working with at the moment, they have well developed user exit procedures for other IT functions, including such things as backup followed by deletion of Exchange Mail box etc, etc. We have now realised that there's a potentially big footprint left in SharePoint by "exited" users (i.e. My Site, Alerts, RSS feeds to name just a few). We'd like to extend the existing company exit procedures to include these SharePoint related resources. Does anyone have any good advice on this, links, procedures?
